Kill the Tower ($8.49)

At a 66% discount, this classic deckbuilding roguelike is definitely worth buying. In this game you fight your way through three levels of the tower, defeat bosses and build your deck. Gameplay is challenging and rewarding, and each playable character has a unique card pool. The randomly generated encounters make each run feel fresh, and the art style is very charming.

Encryption ($11.99)

Calling Inscryption a strategy game is like taking water in your hands and calling it the sea. Inscryption is a multifaceted game with strategy, deck building, roguelike and puzzle solving elements. While the core of Inscryption’s gameplay is card battles, the game will test your ability to strategize and make risky decisions. The spooky ambiance is second to none and we still can’t believe that the entire game was created by a single developer.

Frostpunk ($5.99)

Frostpunk’s mantra is “The city must survive”. As you watch your citizens freeze to death and barely have enough rations to make it through the night, that phrase becomes more real by the second. Frostpunk is a city builder survival game where the environment wants you dead. To complete this game you need to improve your decision-making skills even when things are at an end. With a discount of 80%, this exciting experience is a must.

For the King ($4.99)

If you want to organize a game night for some friends, For the King is an excellent game for the occasion. In this game, three players embark on different missions, embody different classes and narrowly avoid death. The best thing about this game is how easy it is to play. I played this game with two friends and we never stopped laughing. For the King is goofy and surprisingly difficult, and even if it takes a few team wipes, this game is worth playing to the end.
